Anti Aging Calorie Restriction In The News

September 24, 2007 by GiGi

Welcome back!

Did you happen to catch the small blurb on NBC news about calorie restriction?

It mentioned the studies done on primates in the world of anti aging and how a calorie restricted diet can not only help them live longer but also live healthier lives. Of course this is based on about a 20% decrease in calories from a normal caloric diet. A pretty difficult thing to do. In fact, the scientist featured in the piece said he’s tried but can’t stay on the diet.

However, they did have one couple that had been on the diet for several years. They came on and said how healthy they feel.
No offense but they looked rather unhealthy to me! They both appeared rather gaunt and the woman definitely looked emaciated.
